An investment of $25000 accumulated to $38725 over 20 years where interest was compounded bi-weekly. Find the nominal rate of interest (also compounded bi-weekly) as a percentage.
I've done financial questions almost a year ago but want to know if I can do this without looking back at old notes (I did have to find the formula though ). This is what I've done so far:
\(\displaystyle 38725 = 25000(1+\frac{r}{26})^{520}\)
\(\displaystyle 1.549 = (1+\frac{r}{26})^{520}\)
and then... use ln?
